Jaguar XF 2015 vs Ford Mondeo 2013
| Gearbox: | Automatic | Automatic | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Engine: | 3.0 Diesel | 2.5 Petrol | |
| Diesel (Jaguar XF) engines typically outperform gasoline engines in terms of fuel efficiency and low-end torque. This makes them more economical and better suited for towing or long-distance travel. However, gasoline (Ford Mondeo) engines mostly are lighter, quieter, and offer better acceleration and responsiveness, especially in smaller vehicles. For more information, see the article "Diesel or Petrol: Fuel Economy and Key Differences." | |||
Performance | |||
| Power: | 300 HP | 149 HP | |
| Torque: | 700 NM | 230 NM | |
| Acceleration 0-100 km/h: | 6.2 seconds | 10.3 seconds | |
|
Jaguar XF is more dynamic to drive. Jaguar XF engine produces 151 HP more power than Ford Mondeo, whereas torque is 470 NM more than Ford Mondeo. Thanks to more power Jaguar XF reaches 100 km/h speed 4.1 seconds faster. | |||
Fuel consumption | |||
| Fuel consumption (l/100km): | 5.5 | 8.2 | |
|
The Jaguar XF is a better choice when it comes to fuel economy. Jaguar XF consumes 2.7 litres less fuel per 100 km than the Ford Mondeo, which means that by driving the Jaguar XF over 15,000 km in a year you can save 405 litres of fuel. | |||

Drive type | |||
| Wheel drive type: | Rear wheel drive (RWD) | Front wheel drive (FWD) | |
| Front-wheel drive cars (Ford Mondeo) have better traction on slippery roads and when climbing hills, better fuel economy, and are less expensive to purchase. On the disadvantage side, FWD cars usually have less towing capacity, poorer acceleration and harder handling. Rear-wheel drive cars (Jaguar XF) have better handling on dry roads, better acceleration, more even weight distribution and more fun to drive. RWD is also better for towing large loads. The cons of rear-wheel drive are less interior and trunk space and more difficulty maneuvering in wet and snowy conditions. | |||
| Ground clearance: | 116 mm (4.6 inches) | 128 mm (5 inches) | |
| Because of the higher ground clearance, Ford Mondeo can perform better on bad roads - it can go over higher obstacles and bumps. At the same time, the higher ground clearance can reduce stability and handling on paved roads, especially at higher speeds. Note, however, that this Ford Mondeo version does not have 4x4 drive, which is very important in poor road conditions. Choose from three 4x4 versions of Ford Mondeo 2013 if off-road driveability is important to you. | |||
